Maxwell Speed Distribution
The speed distribution for the molecules of an ideal gas is given by Maxwell's speed distribution
Henry's Law
When a gas is in contact with the surface of a liquid, the amount of the gas which will go into solution is proportional to the partial pressure of that gas.
Phase Change
A description and diagram of liquid, solid, gas phase transitions including the concepts of latent heat of fusion and vaporisation.
Molecular Model for an Ideal Gas
This java applet shows a microscopic model for an ideal gas and allows you to see the effects of changing the variables such as pressure, volume and the number of particles.
How a pump works
An article from h2g2 outlining how the principal types of gas and liquid pumps work.
Gas molecule simulation
An interactive simulation modelling particles in a gas to demonstrate the kinetic theory of gases.
